Israel's conditions for Lebanon leaked and they amount to a partition plan...
Diplomatic sources told Al-Modon that Israel wants Lebanon divided into three zones:
Zone 1: An 8km buffer strip in the south. Permanent. No return for displaced civilians.
Zone 2: Everything south of the Litani River becomes a military operations area where Israel dismantles Hezbollah infrastructure and disarms it completely.
Israeli forces leave only when they decide they're finished.
Zone 3: North of the Litani and all remaining Lebanon.
The Lebanese Army must fully disarm and dismantle Hezbollah on its own.
Israel won't withdraw from anywhere until Beirut proves it's done.
In other words, Israel occupies the south indefinitely, controls the middle until satisfied, and holds the north hostage to conditions Lebanon's army almost certainly cannot meet.
Hezbollah has been embedded in Lebanese society for 40 years.
Demanding the Lebanese Army dismantle it is like demanding someone perform surgery on themselves.
Today Rubio hosts Israeli and Lebanese ambassadors in Washington for the most direct high-level meeting between the two countries since 1993.
These conditions are what Israel walks in with.
The State Department framing: "Israel is at war with Hezbollah, not Lebanon."
The Israeli plan: occupy a third of Lebanon until every last Hezbollah weapon is accounted for.
Those two statements cannot coexist.
